Chương 290: Chapter 258: Confirming the Candidate for the New Position

In the following days, Arthur met with the bishops of Australia and New Zealand in succession and sent a telegram to inquire about the opinions of the Church of England. He subsequently announced the establishment of the New Protestant Association of Australasia and the creation of the Archbishop of Australasia.

The title of Archbishop of Australasia is primarily a religious one, as well as the head of the Australasian Protestant Church, overseeing all the Protestant faithful in Australasia.

As such, it is the apex of the religious hierarchy in Australasia, and the position that all Australasian Protestant bishops aspire to.

Steed Marlborough, an archbishop from the Church of England's Protestant Association, was chosen as the first Archbishop of Australasia.

If all goes well, Archbishop Steed will arrive in Australasia in early July to begin his term as the first Archbishop of Australasia.
